Mobile (Labor)
Ability of workers to move between jobs/locations.
Real World
After coal mines closed in South Wales in the 1980s, many miners struggled to retrain for service-sector jobs, illustrating low occupational mobility due to skills mismatch.
Exam Focus
Distinguish clearly between occupational mobility (changing job type) and geographical mobility (changing location) — examiners penalise conflation.
